Moral and Physical" in which he shows
how different the same things may appear
to different people. he says: "Aftel
the great battle on the Mincio in 1859
between the French and Sardlnians on
the one side and the Austrians
on the other, so disastrous to
the latter, the defeated army retrested
followed by the victors. A description
OF the march of each Grmy is given by two
correspondents of the London Times, one
Of whom travelled with the successful
host, the other with the defeated. The
difference in views and statements OF the
same place, scenes and events, is remark,
able. The former are said to b9 march
ing through beautiful and luXuriant
country during the day, and st night en-
camping where they are supplied with an
abundance of the best provisions, and all
sorts of rural dsinties. There is nothing
CT war about the proceeding except its
stimulus and excitement. On the side OF
the poor Austrians it is just the reverse.
In his letter of the same date, describing
the same places and march over the
same road, the writer can scarcely find
words to set forth the suffering,
IMPATIENCR AND DISGUST
existing around him. What was pleasant
to the former was intolers lie to the lat
ter. What made al this difference? asks
the journalist. One condition only: The
French are victorious, the Austrians have
been defeated. The contrast msy convey
distinctive idea OF the extent to which
moral impressions affect the efficiency OF
the soldier"

in your physical conditions makes it look
different, and therefore the two reports

different as the reports in the London
Times from the two correspondents.

portunity this gives to the Christian
physician, for he can feel st the same
time both the pulse of the body and the
pulse of the soul, and he can administer
to both at once, and if medicine is needed
he can give that, and if spiritual counsel
is needed he can give that-an earthly and

APOTHRCARY OF EARTH,
but the pharmacy of heaven. All, that is
the kind of doctor l want at my bedside
when l get sick, one that can not only
count out the right number Of drops, but
VINO can also pray. That is the kind OF
doctor have had in my house when sick
ness or death came. l do not want any
of your profigate or atheistic doctors
around my loved ones when the balances
of life are trembling. A doctor who has
gone through the medical college, and in
dissecting room has traVersed the wonders
of the human mechanism, and found no
God in any of the labyrinths, is fool,
and cannot doctor me or mine. But, oh,
the Christian doctors! WI st comfort

place in our prayers, as well as praise on
our tongues. Dear old DIR. Skillmsn !!
